Eve

The name given in Gen. 2:21–22; 3:20 to the first woman; see also Gen. 3; 4:1; 2 Cor. 11:3; 1 Tim. 2:13. The name means “the mother of all living” (Moses 4:26; see also 1 Ne. 5:11). She was the wife of Adam and will share eternal glory with him. Eve’s recognition of the necessity of the Fall and the joys of Redemption is recorded in Moses 5:11. Latter-day revelation confirms the biblical account of Eve and gives us an awareness of her nobility.
